account adam attraction call culture eve human initial lady land parents phenomenon romantic saw seen start thinking throughout unique worked
They start at the very beginning. The whole account of Adam and Eve is a very romantic picture. I'm also thinking about Samson. That's a really unique picture. He went down to this land and saw this lady and got what I call 'the tingles.' In that culture the parents worked out the details. I think that the phenomenon in that initial attraction is seen throughout human history.
thinking self today
I think that in today's world, by nature, we are all self-centered. And that often leads to selfishness.
real acceptance thinking
I think the tingles are important. They are real, and I am in favor of their survival. But they are not the basis for a satisfactory marriage. I am not suggesting that on should marry without the tingles. Those warm, excited feelings, the chill bumps, that sense of acceptance, the excitement of the touch that make up the tingles serve as the cherry on top of the sundae. But you cannot have a sundae with only the cherry.
thinking people want
I think people desperately want to feel love.
attitude mean thinking
Respect begins with this attitude: "I acknowledge that you are a creature of extreme worth. God has endowed you with certain abilities and emotions. Therefore I respect you as a person. I will not desecrate your worth by making critical remarks about your intellect, your judgment or your logic. I will seek to understand you and grant you the freedom to think differently from the way I think and to experience emotions that I may not experience." Respect means that you give the other person the freedom to be an individual.

We're going to be patient on offense again and work it around. If we have the ball, they can't score. We just have to control the tempo.

Our shooting wasn't there tonight. The first quarter turnovers hurt us, and Hobbs' hot shooting got us too deep in the hole.

We went out and competed against a strong and experienced Hobbs team. I'm very proud of our effort tonight; we had some players step in and do the best they could.
apologize wish
I don't apologize for what we do here. I just wish we could do more, that we had better results.
additional fit high kids mold school setting support
Many kids don't fit that mold of the high school setting and they need a lot of additional support or just a different way of learning.
catch charter graduate run school
Because of the way we run the school and the wavers we have through the charter school process, we can give them credit, they can catch up and graduate on time.
almost bay guy sound south
I feel like I'm a South Bay guy and this may sound humble, but I almost feel like a west-side South Bay guy.
adversity fantastic including lots overcame team
This team accomplished much more than anyone, including me, expected. They overcame adversity and lots of youthfulness and did a fantastic job.
battle far fighting fights-and-fighting last three uphill
It will be an uphill battle, but we've been fighting an uphill battle for the last three weeks. So far we've succeeded.
